The Denver Nuggets had a 17 point lead at one time in the first half but coughed it up and wound up losing to the Milwaukee Bucks for the second time in two weeks, 104-98. Denver didn’t have its shot early and couldn’t find it late, and in between struggled with fundamentals and purposeful play. Jamal Murray had 17 points, 8 rebounds and 9 assists but his 5 turnovers were extremely costly. Nikola Jokic put up 20 / 5 / 5 but the offense was an off-kilter mish-mash for much of the game, and nobody could stop the Bucks when it counted.
Recap: Nuggets can’t find the answer and lose to the Bucks 104-98
